Who are the OUR? if I'm doing a business and I can't recover my capital in 6months or a year, then it doesn't worth it. You just want to impress people here you are bereft of biz ideas. If I'm selling 800pieces (trying to push it to 1000pieces before December) of slice bread per week at N240 each...make your calculation. I have 5 staffs, the highest earn 60k per month, 3 earn 35k and 2 earn 30k per month. I run my gen 4 to 5hours per day. Pls do your calculation.


Gazzuzz ,

With your 2million, travel to Ondo state, buy 35logs at 50k per log. Transport it to shagamu with 150k, load it in a container, forwarding fee is 1,100,000. A container is sold at $12,000.
Buy palm oil from ondo, and sell in that big market close to ketu. There are women that buy 500 25litres keg every 2weeks.

There's a way guys construct "coldroom" now, let them construct for you. It is better than an irregular 35k with repairs per week....

Etc....

Your oil sales biz and your car repair workshop is giving you the cashflow you need as a man/husband/father. What can 35k even do in a week?? Is that what you guys call a cash flow?? You are not just informed!

(Added this)
Gazzuzz , let your wife sell pet drinks in whole sale. 2m will give her lots of bigcola products (that's the new drink for the masses), then she can add cocacola n Pepsi products...

Look around you, Haruna is densely populated. What's giving Nigeria relevance in the market place today is her population.

luxy44:
Are you scared of attacking my opinion alone?

I actually thought you were serious, enjoy your slavery!

I have a bakery and I bottle water. Information is the difference between you and I. Calm down and learn!!!

olumzzz:
Ok..but I'll advise you create a new topic for easy monitoring by your customers

olumzzz:
Hi, do you have Castrol Edge-(High Mileage) 5w20?

TheCar:
The elders has spoken.

Honda Civic is the main thing now.

Gazzu.zz, Dove.horizon, Dru.23, Car.shopper and Oga darmilo.lah has said Honda Civic is the new trend now.

Now let go shopping.

Gentlelife50:
Very correct, they were even busy advertising how female riders can hook up with their drivers.

profjo:
Help a broda. Two weeks now, i never get car, all the ones i see keep requesting for initial deposit and security levy. 08026868958 i can strt work as soon as uber link us together. Thanks

ifyeez:
king of Assurance is the person you're now meeting. Welldone sir

ochefio:
Please guys, which is better for Uber, Honda accord 2004 or Hyundai accent 2008.

jayooh:
How? Them tif the or or them tif your partner?

laytoshtwo:
Buy a car now

kneo:
Well, car owners on nairaland may not favour you as a newbie. Why not try uber market place. There are plenty dead car owners there looking for drivers. They will even flood your phone with calls and SMS asking you to drive for them.
More importantly, they don't ask for security deposits

profjo:
Many people complain just tondiscourage we the incoming drivers. I'm not discouraged, i only see the positve replies and ignore negative ones.no shaking! �

medd422:
Car owners fighting so hard to justify their 35k rental. Lol

Gentlelife50:
Na so my brother, sometimes I only ignore them.

0ubenji:
as regards the emboldened, if u often pay up 30k remittance 2-3days b4 the due day. Then, 35k a week wasn't bondage in any way for u strictly on the issue of disbursement.
Statements like this are real suicidal, it can give the car owner 2nd tots on d weekly remittance. If u knw, you know.

TheCar:
Wow.

Kudos to you.

God would bless the work of your hands and you would harvest your seed.

***************************

But please you need to educate the new and upcoming drivers not to fall into this same trap. To me it's wickedness. How would a driver be responsible for engine oil and car servicing. It's the car owner responsibility to buy his/her engine oil and service his/her car.

I am really happy for you that you finally get out of the contract - bondage - although you stay too long there.

Please enlighten and educate others.

Congratulations on your new ride.

I also pray God bless your work and crown all your efforts with success. His (God) Grace would found and favour you. He would grant all your heart desires and bless you with your own car.

Amen.

kneo:
It was one of those contracts you go into out of desperation.
Owner said he will handle only engine and gear box repairs while I took care of every other repairs. For 1 year and 3 months, there was no engine issue neither was there any gear box issues.
I remitted 35k/week.
I was in bondage.
Luckily, robbers rescued me from that contract.
I am now on a 30k/week contract with a 2010 corolla. NO ASSURANCE DEPOSIT demanded from the car owner and we are having a wonderful relationship. I even pay him on Sundays at times before taxify and uber settles.
There are still reasonable persons here on nairaland

nairamaniac:
Thanx for response.
WD definitely reach u via chat or call soon.

Another question;
What quantity of engine oil is required to change the oil?

Can someone use normal engine oil that cost #3,500 per gallon to those expensive mobil-1 that cost over #15,000/gallon?

What's the effect of using the #3,500 engine oil on these kinds of engines?


Do they find c230 2016models that is 4plugs.

Would you call this attached pic of an engine a 4plug c230 engine?
Is it a v6 or v4?

WD appreciate your response.

Thanx!

Meanwhile, how does this very engine/spec compare to the one you posted on page 6?

That is the c230(silver) you posted on page 6.

Can you pls compare&,contrast?

honeymix77:
but have same shape except for the engine the normal c230 V-6 2.5L which is quite a rugged engine and the fuel economy is not too bad if engine is sound,

while the c230 kompressor has a I-4 1.8L with supercharger, The Kompressor is a supercharger which is an air pump driven by a belt. It is a lot simpler than a turbo and spins at a fraction of the speed a turbo does.

both cars are built for speed the Kompressor is there for higher horsepower.

either of the 2 is a good choice if u love speed or you travel a lot u can go for the V6 but if not you can go for the komoressor, but u must use the proper oil and always check that there is sufficient oil flow to cool and protect the turbo bearings from coking due to heat buildup after shutdown.

call or chat me on O8O256615OO, O816887562O

joeokoriem:
bros go and invest your money somewhere else. The business has cast!!!
Or better still use one as part time and sell one to invest in other business. The 35k remittance is nearly impossible. That's my own advice

Moda1:
;Dru ,why do u always feel and insinuate as if ur the only one that can buy tokunbo car, u talk down on ur fellow partners too much . I know u hv some cars with u that hv been in naija for more than 6months ,is that one still tokunbo? As far as I'm concerned, all ur cars are naija used immediately its used on our bad roads



You dey on point o ..better to drive a tokunbo for few months and hopefully you would have save money aside and join it with whatever u had save previously and buy your tokunbo.. It is highly durable that way ....but the question remain is do we any or how many partners are actually buying tokunbo cars for uber?

almsofgold:
gazzuzz and Dru23 to the rescue . I know say you got loan me money if I broke for the oyel. Fear don set catch me sef .no aboki available,but God dey

Gentlelife50:
When I say you don't know anything about this business you thought I was joking, just talking up and down. Kwantiniu

IWealthCreator:
Please can you recommend a good rewire for me urgent. thanks

Gentlelife50:
Mr dru will sue you ooo, how can you be giving out toks vehicle at 30? When drivers are making 400k and above according to him.

Gentlelife50:
Instead of Uber to look for riders they are advertising how female riders can hook up with their drivers.
When you don't know what to do again.

chillex8:
I know u didn't mention me. No offense.lol

If I were u, I will pay assurance deposit and take a tokunbo car on rental. Pls don't attempt any Nigerian used car for the purpose of e hailing. Be it rental or HP.


Drive on rental for months till u can save up for a tokunbo car of your own.


I repeat, don't attempt any Nigerian Used car for E-hailing.

I know they will come for my head.

We agree to diss- agree

cross8701:
Buy your own Toks car and give it out for 25k. Try and lead by example.

0ubenji:
I juz tire..some Nigerians are distinctive set of hypocrites.
This thread has almost 900pages; and from the very 1st page til today, I never srop seeing that same story, this bizness has cast.
More like it has even casted b4 it started some years ago..
The strangest of all..I keep seeing comments of recent that this business no be like before when e never cast..., yet, on this same NL, I still saw same comments almost 2yrs ago from some familiar set of ppl on this thread amidst others.

Izzit that there is no good in this business from the onset or these hypocrites just don't want to ever see the good innit at all?

It's hightime dey switch to another format to decieve car owners and prospective investors abeg.
